TAMBA changes name in a bid to reach more families

Twins Trust, formerly known as Tamba (the Twins and Multiple Births Association) has rebranded with a new name and website launched in celebration of its 40th anniversary.

The name Twins Trust was chosen to help the charity reach even more parents and maintain itself as the only charity in the UK offering support to families with twins, triplets or more.

Twins Trust also funds research, campaigns to save babies' lives and runs a membership scheme that offers families access to many discounts.

Twins Trust President Judi Linney MBE was one of the founders of the charity and says: "Many of the issues facing twin, triplet and higher order birth families in 1979 are still relevant today.

"I am delighted with the new name Twins Trust, which has the strapline 'we support twins, triplets and more'. It is clear and recognisable and can be easily searched for online, which is a lifeline for so many people.

"The charity has grown enormously over the years and developed into such a wonderful resource which helps so many families and healthcare professionals."
